Mediterranean fish pie

Background
This Mediterranean fish pie is a lovely, healthy dish, but it can take some time to cook. However, the first stages (boiling the potatoes and eggs) can be made well in advance and kept refrigerated. The tomato sauce also could be precooked, or you could use ready-made (homemade or shop bought) versions. Serve it with a Β crispy, green salad. Also, you could make two dishes, one with cheese the other without, or two of the same and freeze one for a later meal. Serve it with a Β crispy, green salad.

- Add the fresh herbs, then blitz the sauce, using a stick blender, until you get a coarse finish. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 180Β°C.
- Grease one large or two medium deep dishes with oil, then add a layer of potatoes, the eggs, then mixed fish, then cover with the sauce. You can add some cheese if you like.
- Repeat the layers, leaving enough potatoes to be the top layer.
